2010-02-24

Håkan Dahlström, currently President of business area Broadband Services, has today been appointed President of business area Mobility Services. He succeeds Kenneth Karlberg, who leaves his position and the TeliaSonera Group.

“Kenneth Karlberg has contributed to the successful development of TeliaSonera’s mobile business for a number of years. In order to develop the company further, however, we need to change certain behaviors and act more like one company. In such a process, you sometimes have to change leadership profiles. Therefore, Kenneth Karlberg leaves his position,” says Lars Nyberg, President and CEO.

“Håkan Dahlström has done an excellent job in Broadband Services, and prior to that in Mobility Services Sweden. Profitability has improved, cross functional cooperation has been developed and employee commitment and satisfaction has improved,” says Lars Nyberg.
